Cromarty After this episode aired, there was a storming of Ross and Cromarty estate agents....get in line folks! Youtube audio is accompanied by the beautiful landscapes of Pat Hay, the Canadian artist who settled here when her children were young. All participants are effusive about their beautiful, friendly, ecological town. 6. Camden Pub I love Camden and so visit The Camden Head to talk to Michael Kossew of the Natural Born Storytellers ahead of her performance. Michael has a particularly engaging view of society and I felt better just for talking to him...more buoyant and hopeful. Since we are in lockdown, it's particularly refreshing to listen in order to revisit the pub. Oh, and my story....make sure you wait for the end...it's worth it! 7. Wells-next-the-Sea with Roger Law Spitting Image co-creator's voice is hypnotising as he tells us about his childhood in The Fens, his career and his move to Wells. Apparently 'It's like the fifties with olives'. Anyone with a room to rent for me and the dog? 8.
